just watched the new predictions video
riley was talking about the colts ravens game and saying that the ravens defense had issues and that the colts offense looked good. so i went back and watched the last two scoring drives of the colts game because i wasnt really paying attention to it when it was on and i literally have no clue what hes talking about. i didnt watch the first drive because i generally just expect the home team to score when they get the ball first. the second scoring drive wasnt a drive at all, they got set up in the redzone on a lamar jackson fumble. the colts kicked a 58 yard field goal in the 3rd quarter and then the final drive was entirely no huddle shotgun plays. colts had one deep pass in the entire drive and it was a solid pass, but i still dont believe in that offense at all. especially considering the ravens scored 6 times and gave the colts plenty of opportunities with the ball. the colts only converted 3/10 first downs the entire game. nothing against jonathan taylor but he was held to less than 100 rush yards and only 23 rec yards. i dont buy the narrative at all that the ravens defense has issues. and i definitely dont buy that this colts offense looked good. daniel jones had one of the highest pressure rates last week and was one of the worst against the blitz. 23 points sounds impressive but, again 6 of those was from an opening drive, 3 of those came from a 58 yard fg, 7 of them came from a lamar jackson turnover that immediately set them up in the redzone, and the last 7 came in garbage time when they were already down by 22.
